Schlage 11-116 - A Series Spring Latch, Square Corner, 1-1/8" x 2-1/4" Faceplate, 2-3/4" Backset

Three things have to line up. The 11-116 is an A Series spring latch cut to a 2-3/4 inch backset, so measure from the edge of the door to the center of the knob bore and confirm you get 2-3/4. The faceplate is square corner and measures 1-1/8 x 2-1/4 inches, so the pocket already routed in the door edge needs to match that size and corner style. Third, it is a service part for the A Series lock, driven by the lock trim already on the door, so the knob or lever you have stays in place.

No. The 11-116 is built to a single 2-3/4 inch backset, the deeper of the two standard commercial bores, and the tailpiece will not reach a cross bore drilled 2-3/8 inches in from the door edge. Measure edge of door to the center of the bore before ordering. If it comes out at 2-3/8, you need an A Series latch specified for that backset instead, not this one.

Not without cutting the door. The 11-116 uses a square corner faceplate at 1-1/8 x 2-1/4 inches, so it drops into a square cornered mortise. A radius corner pocket, the kind a router and template leave behind, will show gaps at all four corners and the plate will not sit flush. Either chisel the corners square or source a radius corner latch of the same 1-1/8 x 2-1/4 size and 2-3/4 backset.

Yes, and on a flat edge door too. A Series latches adjust for flat or beveled door edges, so the same 11-116 covers a square edged hollow metal or wood door and a door with a beveled lock edge. That saves keeping two part numbers on the truck when a building has a mix of old and new leaves.

A spring latch like the Schlage 11-116 has a single beveled bolt that springs into the strike when the door closes. A deadlatch adds a small plunger riding alongside the bolt that gets held in by the strike and blocks the bolt from being pushed back, which is what defeats shimming with a card. For interior office, classroom, storeroom and apartment interior doors, a spring latch is the normal fit. If the opening is an exterior or unit entry door and you want the anti-shim function, go with a deadlatch instead, such as the Dexter deadlatch for the C1000 Series.

Just the latch. The 11-116 is a replacement part, the latch assembly that sits in the door edge and is driven by the lock trim already mounted on the door. The knob or lever, the roses and the rest of the lock stay where they are. This is the part to order when the latch has quit retracting or the spring has gone soft but the trim is still good.

It depends which line you are buying. The Schlage 11-116 is an A Series spring latch that is compatible with lock trim and adjustable for flat or beveled edge doors, so the trim mounted on the door is what the latch is matched to. Deltana splits its regular latches by function instead: G1RLE275 is listed for entry and G1RLP275 for passage/privacy, both Grade 1 at a 2-3/4 inch backset, with G1RLE238 and G1RLP238 covering the same two functions at 2-3/8 inches. If you are buying Deltana, count your entry and passage openings separately; the function is decided at the part number.

Eight finishes are offered: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 609 antique brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome and 643E aged bronze. The faceplate is the only piece that shows once the latch is in, sitting in the edge of the door against the strike, so match it to the lockset and strike already on the opening rather than to the door. On commercial buildings that is usually 626 satin chrome.

It is classed as a commercial part, not residential, and the latch is stainless steel. Stainless matters on exterior doors, pool and locker room openings and anywhere the edge of the door sees moisture, since a plated steel latch will rust and start dragging in the strike. For a facility standardizing on one part, the 11-116 covers every A Series opening bored at 2-3/4 with a 1-1/8 x 2-1/4 square corner mortise, flat edge or beveled.

No. The 11-116 is a bored lock latch that goes in the edge of an active door and is retracted by the lock trim, so it needs a lock to drive it. A fixed or inactive sidelite panel takes an auxiliary latch made for that job, such as the Accentra YSSL10 security sidelite auxiliary latch, which uses an ADA compliant thumbturn, is fire rated and is specified for 1-3/4 inch thick panels.

The Schlage 11-116 is an A Series spring latch with a square corner 1-1/8 inch by 2-1/4 inch faceplate on a 2-3/4 inch backset, adjustable for flat or beveled edge doors and made to work with lock trim. Deltana builds regular latches on the same 2-3/4 inch backset in two functions: the G1RLE275, a Grade 1 regular latch for entry, and the G1RLP275, a Grade 1 regular latch for passage/privacy. The 11-116 is a certified Schlage part for A Series trim, so it is the one to pull when the lock already in the door is Schlage A Series; the Deltana parts are selected by function rather than by the trim they sit under.

The Schlage 11-116 is built on a 2-3/4 inch backset with a square corner 1-1/8 inch by 2-1/4 inch faceplate, so it suits an opening bored at 2-3/4 inches. For a 2-3/8 inch prep, Deltana lists the G1RLE238 Grade 1 regular latch for entry and the G1RLP238 Grade 1 regular latch for passage/privacy. Confirm which function the opening needs before ordering, since Deltana separates entry from passage/privacy as different part numbers rather than as one latch shared across both.

They are two different classes of product. The Lockey M230 is a mechanical keyless digital combination deadlocking spring latch lock with an adjustable backset, listed for door thicknesses from 1-1/8 to 2 inches - it is a complete lock with its own combination entry, so fitting one means replacing the entire lock on the door. The Schlage 11-116 is a replacement spring latch that goes inside an existing A Series lock and works with the lock trim already on the door. Choose the M230 when the goal is to convert an opening to keyless combination entry, and the 11-116 when the trim stays and only the latch is being renewed.

A sidelite panel is a different application. The Accentra YSSL10 is a security sidelite auxiliary latch with an ADA compliant thumbturn, fire rated and listed for 1-3/4 inch door thickness, which is what goes into the inactive sidelite leaf. The Schlage 11-116 is an A Series spring latch for the active door, square corner faceplate at 1-1/8 inch by 2-1/4 inch on a 2-3/4 inch backset, working with the lock trim mounted on that door. On a glass front with a latched sidelite, the two parts serve separate leaves rather than substituting for each other.

No - each is built for its own lock. The Dexter part is a deadlatch made for the Dexter C1000 series and is ordered against that series. The Schlage 11-116 is an A Series spring latch, square corner, 1-1/8 inch by 2-1/4 inch faceplate, 2-3/4 inch backset, certified as a Schlage part and intended for A Series lock trim. Identify the lock chassis in the door first, then order the latch that belongs to it; latch faceplates and chassis engagement are specific to the lock family, not shared across brands.

Order by the lock family and the faceplate, not by backset alone. The Schlage 11-116 is identified as an A Series spring latch with a square corner faceplate measuring 1-1/8 inch by 2-1/4 inch on a 2-3/4 inch backset, built in stainless steel and offered in finishes including 626 satin chrome and 613 oil rubbed bronze. Deltana's parts at the same backset carry their own identifiers - G1RLE275 for entry and G1RLP275 for passage/privacy, both Grade 1 regular latches. A 2-3/4 inch backset is common to all of them, so the faceplate shape and dimensions and the lock family are what separate one from the next.
